Recently, Guns N’ Roses announced that keyboardist Melissa Reese will not join the 2026 world tour due to unforeseen personal reasons. Reese, who joined the band in 2016, was its first female member. It remains unclear if a replacement will be named, leaving Dizzy Reed as the sole keyboardist for now. The current lineup includes Axl Rose (vocals), Slash (guitar), Duff McKagan (bass), Richard Fortus (guitar and backing vocals), and Isaac Carpenter (drums).
The band will perform on the following dates: April 1 in Porto Alegre, April 4 at the Monsters of Rock Festival in São Paulo, April 7 in São José do Rio Preto, April 9 in Campo Grande, April 12 in Cariacica, April 15 in Salvador, April 18 in Fortaleza, April 21 in São Luís, and April 25 in Belém. Halestorm will open the Porto Alegre show, while Raimundos will support the other solo performances.
Guns N’ Roses’ 2025 Brazilian tour featured the same setlist under the banner “Because What You Want and What You Get Are Two Completely Different Things,” with performances in São Paulo, Curitiba, Florianópolis, Cuiabá, and Brasília. The concerts, lasting around three hours, included classic hits, newer tracks, and covers ranging from Jimmy Webb to Black Sabbath.
Fans can anticipate a diverse setlist featuring songs like “Welcome to the Jungle,” “Mr. Brownstone,” “Live and Let Die,” and “Sweet Child o’ Mine.” The band is also expected to perform covers such as “Slither” by Velvet Revolver and “Sabbath Bloody Sabbath” by Black Sabbath.
